A Promise from God

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)
I have been going through a tough period. Never sure of where I was headed, I often sunk to the depths of despair. But recently, I received a promise from God. And that is this verse. This is hope. And hope is what I'll cling to. For where there is hope, there is faith. And, even if my faith is like a child's, then I rather prefer this than darkness and despair.

Thank You, Lord!
